Give them your turst untill they
Give you a reason not to..
Then thats great
For you
But my trust and my heart have been
Abused amd mis-used to many times
I have learned to protect myself
I have put up a wall and
And only let people get so close
Then someone like you comes along
Loving,caring and willing to be there
Wanting to be there
And i get scared
I dont know how to let you in
I know its unfair to you
To have to pay for the mistakes of others
To have to deal with the pain they left behind
But im asking you to try
I believe that love is about letting go
Putting all of your trust into that other person
I believe that when you hold back
You miss out on the possibility
Of experencing something great
Maybe im not ready to take that leap
But i am willing to try
Theres so many thoughts,questions and chances
That this could all be fake
Thats what my head tells me
But my heart is telling me that you mean
Every word that you say
And that your worth taking that "chance"
You wanted honesty and thats what you got
So there it is out in the open
Just lingering in the air
Where do we go from here?
Take the next step
Make the next move
Are you willing to wait for me?
I dont want to loose you and
I dont want push you away
So can we both make an effort to try?
For you to have patients with me
And for me to give you that trust you need
We dont have to know everything now
I guess its all up to time
But just remember that i love you
I know that i dont always make things easy
I just need to know that you will be there.

I have slept in a forest
I have kissed in the rain
Set fire to plastic
With nothing to gain
I have stared at the stars
From a trampoline
In the dead of the night
On a ***** blurred Halloween
I have lain on the roof
At the break of dawn
With a then best friend
Now a memory long gone
I have experimented
More than I’d like to admit
Known the taste of his tongue
Or the touch of her lips
I have woken up in places
Seen never before
Had a sea of regrets
Regretted no more
In less than four years I have
Lived a life fuller than most
And looked down on by many
They turn up their noses
A life ruled by
Sheer impulse mistaken
For utter stupidity
But I’m scared
I am petrified
These days won’t last
To be eighteen forever
Is all I ask
basically me just being an  overly sentimental teenager who doesn't wanna stop going to parties n making dumb decisions

I get bored walking the treadmill..need scenic diversity..none of my senses live behind fences.
            
            Tunnel vision aint my
            Religion..peripheral all day.

Pretty flowers do have powers and blue skys captivate.
                 Woe is me.Not my cup of tea but a few sips are medicinal.

      Reality is jagged..
      People.Can hurt eyes closed or open.

Three lil monkeys chap my hide..wanna see the road when I go for a ride. P.C. ?
               Is half truth and half denial to me I'd rather eyeball reality..shaky knees and all.

       Call out, Fall out.
       Ball out.

Addiction

Coffee,
computers,
***,
alcohol,
Love and other drugs...

Sometimes, we say goodbye to addiction
not because we want to
not because we don't like it anymore
because we must,
because our addiction
wrecks the lives of others

Then, it isn't about our love for addiction
for that very specific addiction
or our desperate,
DESPERATE yearning for it,
but because we love our children
we love our friends and family
and our addiction might just wreck it
probably will wreck it!

So we betray ourselves
we betray our hearts
stab a cold dagger into our hearts,
just so that we don't wreck others
mostly, our innocent children

I take in teaspoons of light
to feed the darkness…
and it still growls with hunger.

Nothing craves light
more than a shadow
with a secret it wants to show.
